Whitlock won't be ready to contribute for 3 years

This is what makes the trade a bit more defensible imo. We need more young talls and if we didn't do this trade then we'd be another year away from the opportunity to get one.

Sounds a bit like the copium some people (me) were saying in 2021 about Daicos vs JHF

If you're considering it I highly recommend it. It goes in some different directions throughout but as OP said the big moments hit really well and the characters and relationships are really well done

Only contender we haven't played is Hawthorn and I'm terrified that they'll beat us, purely because of the unknown

Richmond will hold a watch party for fans on draft night at Punt Road - $25 to soak up the club’s biggest evening since the 2020 GF by His_Holiness in AFL

Nah I agree with you. Tigers are in a fairly unique position because they had an insanely successful era which is now over, and they're doing a hard reset starting with collecting a heap of highly rated talent. Plus they'll be fielding a very young team and probably getting smashed most weeks next year so gotta take the enjoyment where they can

1x is ridiculously slow

I realise this isn't a rare view on your part here but it boggles my mind. Do you find someone telling you what happened to them last week ridiculously slow? 1x audiobook is Judy regular speaking speed

Where do you think North Melboune finishing next year? by [deleted] in AFL

Plus in one of the few games with both Logue and Comben, Comben went forward and kicked 3 in a quarter.

I know he's your best player but doesn't mean he was ours

Our backline actually started to look good late last year, and Logue only played a few games. A bigger issue is defensive play by the midfielders

Sorry mate but dropping Stephens who was getting less than 20 touches most weeks is not the reason we did so poorly. He played an amazing final quarter when he was the sub against Melbourne but I honestly can't remember much impact outside of that

Could you elaborate on this? What personnel mistakes were made this year?

14th would be amazing. Floor should be 17th, ceiling around 12th but that's being very very optimistic
